A&m joeckel left tackle declares

0

Ok so one of the best pro sure things joeckel has declared for the 2013 nfl draft. With albert being a free agent we could look to take the best prospect in this draft fill the most important position on the o line which keeps us from stretching for a qb. That would then allow us to take a qb either by trading back into the first or fall in love with a qb in the secound.

After joeckels performance he is probably will be the in demand #1 pick. albert has proven to be a solid LT so resign him and trade down in the 1st. take the best player available, hopefully CB, MLB, QB, C,G etc.. their should be a russel wilson or colin kapernik somewhere in round #2 or #3 if we don't take a QB in #1. Dalton and Ponder both turned out to be solid QBs so don't get caught up in the Geno hype, we'll do OK w/out him.

U heart his baylor game, like everyone else. take his first 4 games away and in his last 8 games he is undistinguishable statwise from the next 4 QBs on the board. if we have a mid 1st round pick and he falls maybe worth a shot but not to use up the #1.
i have seen draft grades were he is #24 overall and in a few were he is #5, but most place him #10 to #15. and most of those still predict we take him #1. doesn't that say we are either stupid or desperate or maybe both?

What's stupid is not draftin the best player available. If a 37 ur old guard who has never played center can make the transition mid season. A natural left guard who excelled at it for years in college could make the transition with a full off season. You are right I am stupid. Does that make you feel more like a man now

Ponder turned out solid? Have you seen his numbers? Ponder is barely average. Had a 1-1 td/int (w/ 5 fumbles) ratio last year and 3-2 ratio this year with another 5 fumbles.

Nothing stupid about it, at all. Albert played Guard in high school and college. The Chiefs had no business throwing him out at LT in the NFL. I will grant you he has stepped up his pass-protection to a point, but he's not an anchor or a clutch performer at LT by any means.

Hell, he couldn't even roadgrade a DB that he outweighed by 100 lb. in the Pitt game on Monday night, and instead tried to do the two-step waltz with him by grabbing the DB & twisting him around in open space and drawing a flag that negated a TD ( and yes, that was the correct call. You cannot grab a defender & twist him around like that in open space as that's always going to draw a flag ).

Albert does NOT warrant a franchise tag nor a big 10 million plus a year contract & he has back problems that may not go away. The Chiefs should only make him a reasonable offer & if he won't take it, then let him walk.

Therefore it looks like the stupidity amongst the Chiefs fanbase would include YOU at the top of the list.
